An upper system coming from the Pacific will bring our next chances for rain across our area beginning Thursday into Friday and ending on Saturday. A few embedded thunderstorms are possible with the heavier rain amounts expected across our west.

There is a 15-20 percent chance for rain Saturday evening across central into eastern Oklahoma. Temperatures after sundown will be in the 60s with light east to southeast winds under mostly cloudy to overcast skies.

Another storm system moves into the US next week. Chances for rain and potentially severe weather will increase in our area Monday to Wednesday, but significant uncertainty remains in the forecast.

Near to above normal temperatures will continue into early next week. Rain chances will return Thursday and continue into next week as well.

Local Weather History For October 28th...

Two airmen at Sheppard Air Force Base were killed by lightning early
in the morning of October 28th, 1982. As they walked to class,
lightning stuck a nearby hangar, and jumped to the ground, striking
the two men. One was killed instantly, and the other died several
days later in the base hospital.
